FIG. 1A to FIG. 10 are schematic sectional views of various stages in a method of fabricating a package structure according to some exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B, a semiconductor wafer 110 including a plurality of semiconductor dies (not shown) is provided. In some embodiments, the semiconductor wafer 110 is a silicon bulk wafer. In some embodiments, the semiconductor wafer 110 is a reconstituted wafer. The semiconductor wafer 110 may further include active components, passive components, conductive elements or doped regions therein, but for illustration purposes, these components or elements are omitted in the figures. The semiconductor wafer 110 has an active surface 110A, and a backside surface 110B opposite to the active surface 110A. In some embodiments, a die attach film 200 is disposed on the backside surface 110B of the semiconductor wafer 110. In one embodiment, the semiconductor wafer 110 is backside thinned to a desirable thickness before disposing the die attach film 200. In some embodiments, the die attach film 200 comprises a plurality of fillers 220 dispersed within a film material 210. The film material 210, for example, may be a polymer-based glue material or a thermal-plastic resin material that can be hardened when heated or cured. The plurality of fillers 220 for example, may be inorganic particles, such as Al₂O₃ particles, metal oxide particles or the like. In some embodiments, the fillers 220 may be particles of spherical shapes.

In the exemplary embodiments, the fillers 220 included in the die attach film 200 are arranged in a single layer. That is, the thickness of the die attach film 200 is principally decided by the largest dimension of the particles or the particle diameter of the fillers 220. In one embodiment, the fillers 220 included in the die attach film 200 are uniformly arranged beside one another as a monolayer layer. In some embodiments, the die attach film 200 is obtained through a press rolling process. For instance, as shown in FIG. 1B, the mixture including the film material 210 and the fillers 220 is pressed by the rollers 205 with a specific distance 205D apart. Through controlling the specific distance 205D to be slightly larger or about equivalent to the largest dimension of the particles or the particle diameter of the fillers 220, the press rolling process makes sure spreading out the fillers 220 evenly in the die attach film 200 of a specific thickness 200D so that the fillers 220 are dispersed in the film material 210 side-by-side as a monolayer, and the fillers 220 are not stacked on each other. In certain embodiments, the plurality of fillers 220 may have an average dimeter 220D, and the fillers 220 are preferably particles of a substantially uniform size or diameter. In some embodiments, after the press rolling process, the average thickness (or the height) 200D of the die attach film 200 is substantially equal to the average diameter 220D of the plurality of fillers 220. In some embodiments, the diameter 220D of the plurality of fillers 220 is at least larger than 100 μm. In some embodiments, the diameter 220D of the plurality of fillers 220 is in a range from 100 μm to 150 μm. In some embodiments, the content of the plurality of fillers 220 in the die attach film 200 is in the range of 20% by volume to 40% by volume. In some embodiments, the average thickness 200D of the die attach film 200 is in a range from 100 μm to 150 μm.

Next, referring to FIG. 2, semiconductor dies 110′ are provided and each semiconductor die 100′ has a die attach film 200 attached to its backside 110B. In some embodiments, the semiconductor dies 110′ may be obtained by performing a wafer dicing process to the semiconductor wafer 110 and the die attach film 200 as depicted in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B, such that the semiconductor wafer 110 is singulated into a plurality of semiconductor dies 110′ (along with the diced die attach film 200 thereon). In certain embodiments, the wafer dicing process is performed at the dicing line(s) DL as shown in FIG. 1A to separate the semiconductor dies 110′. In certain embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, each of the semiconductor die 110′ includes a semiconductor substrate 110-1, a plurality of conductive pads 110-2 formed on the semiconductor substrate 110-1, and a passivation layer 110-3. In one embodiment, the passivation layer 110-3 is formed over the substrate 110-1 and has a plurality of opening so as to partially expose the conductive pads 110-2. In some embodiments, the semiconductor substrate 110-1 is a silicon substrate including active components (e.g., transistors, diodes, optoelectronic devices or the like) and passive components (e.g., resistors, capacitors, inductors, transducers or the like) formed therein. In certain embodiments, the conductive pads 110-2 are aluminum pads, copper pads or other suitable metallic pads. In some embodiments, the passivation layer 110-3 includes a silicon oxide layer, a silicon nitride layer, a silicon oxy-nitride layer or a dielectric layer formed by other suitable dielectric materials.

Furthermore, in some embodiments, conductive pillars 110-4 are formed on the exposed conductive pads 110-2 of the semiconductor die 110′, and a protection layer 110-5 is formed on the passivation layer 110-3 but exposes the conductive pillars 110-4. In some embodiments, the conductive pillars 110-4 are copper pillars or copper alloy pillars. In certain embodiments, the protection layer 110-5 includes a polymer layer having sufficient thickness to protect the conductive pillars 110-4. For example, the protection layer 110-5 includes a polybenzoxazole (PBO) layer, a polyimide (PI) layer or layers of other suitable polymer materials. In some alternative embodiments, the protection layer 110-5 may be made of inorganic materials.

In the exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the die attach film 200 attached to each of the semiconductor dies 110′ for example, includes a first side surface 200A and a second side surface 200B opposite to the first side surface 200A, and the first side surface 200A and the second side surface 200B of the die attach film 200 are respectively aligned with the two opposite side surfaces 1105 of the semiconductor die 110′. In certain embodiments, the die attach film 200 at the first side surface 200A has a first height H1, and the die attach film 200 at the second side surface 200B has a second height H2. In some embodiments, compared with an average height H3 of the die attach film 200, a height variation between the first height H1, the second height H2 and the average height H3 of the die attach film 200 is within 10 μm. In certain embodiments, the height variation between the first height H1, the second height H2 and the average height H3 of the die attach film 200 is within 2.5 μm. Alternatively, the height variation between the first height H1, the second height H2 and the average height H3 is very small or nearly zero. In some embodiments, the die attach film 200 has a substantially uniform height or thickness over the whole area of the semiconductor die 100′.

In the exemplary embodiment, since the plurality of fillers 220 is uniformly arranged in a single layer in the die attach film 200, and that the diameter 220D of the plurality of fillers 220 is substantially equal to the height 200D of the die attach film 200, the height variation in each portion of the die attach film 200 may be controlled within 10 μm. In other words, the height 200D of the die attach film 200 may be defined and controlled through the plurality of fillers 220. Therefore, a height variation of the semiconductor die 110′ formed on the die attach film 200 may also be minimized. In other embodiments, when fillers 220 are not used in the die attach film 200, a height variation of the die attach film 200 will become more prominent with the increase in thickness of the die attach film 200, which may eventually affect the die height and process yield of the package.

Next, as shown in FIG. 3, in some embodiments, a debond layer 112, a buffer layer 114 and a conductive pattern 116 are formed on a carrier CR. The carrier CR may be a glass carrier or any suitable carrier used in the method of fabricating the package structure. . In some embodiments, the conductive pattern 116 is formed on the buffer layer 114, and includes a first portion 116A and a second portion 116B surrounding the first portion 116A. As shown in FIG. 1, the buffer layer 114 is located between the debond layer 112 and the conductive pattern 116, and the debond layer 112 is located between the carrier CR and the buffer layer 114. In certain embodiments, a portion of the buffer layer 114 is exposed by the conductive pattern 116. In some alternative embodiments, the buffer layer 114 may be omitted; in other words, merely the debond layer 112 is formed over the carrier CR. In some alternative embodiments, the conductive pattern 116 may be a single-layer structure without separate portions.

In the exemplary embodiment, the material of the debond layer 112 may be any material suitable for debonding the carrier CR from the above layers disposed thereon. In some embodiments, for example, the debond layer 112 may include a release layer (such as a light-to-heat conversion (“LTHC”) layer) and an adhesive layer (such as an ultra-violet curable adhesive or a heat curable adhesive layer). In some embodiments, the buffer layer 114 may be a dielectric material layer. In some embodiments, the buffer layer 114 may be a polymer layer which is made of polyimide, polybenzoxazole (PBO), benzocyclobutene (BCB), or any other suitable polymer-based dielectric material. The debond layer 112 and the buffer layer 114 may be formed by a suitable fabrication technique such as spin-coating, lamination, deposition, or the like. In some embodiments, a material of the conductive pattern 116 for example, includes aluminum, titanium, copper, nickel, tungsten, and/or alloys thereof. In one embodiment, the conductive pattern 116 may be formed by a suitable fabrication technique such as plating process, photolithography and etching processes, or the like. In some embodiments, the patterning process includes performing a dry etching process, a wet etching process, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the conductive pattern 116 may serve as a ground plate for the later-formed antenna patterns.

Referring to FIG. 4, after forming the conductive pattern 116, a plurality of through insulator vias 118 and antennas 120 are formed on the buffer layer 114. In some embodiments, the through insulator vias 118 and antennas 120 are formed by photolithography, plating, photoresist stripping processes or any other suitable methods. In one embodiment, the through insulator vias 118 may be formed by forming a mask pattern (not shown) covering the conductive pattern 116 and the buffer layer 114 with openings exposing a portion of the conductive pattern 116, then forming a metallic material filling the openings to form the through insulator vias 118 by electroplating or deposition and then removing the mask pattern. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, a material of the through insulator vias 118 may include a metal material such as copper or copper alloys, or the like. In some embodiments, the antennas 120 may be dipole antennas. In certain embodiments, the through insulator vias 118 are for example formed on the second portion 116B of the conductive pattern 116, while the antennas 120 are formed on the buffer layer 114 adjacent to the through insulator vias 118. For simplification, only two through insulator vias 118 and two antennas 120 are presented in FIG. 4 for illustrative purposes, however, it should be noted that more than two through insulator vias 118 and antennas 120 may be formed. In some embodiments, the number of the through insulator vias 118 and antennas 120 can be selected based on product demand.

Referring to FIG. 5, after forming the through insulator vias 118 and antennas 120, the semiconductor die 110′ may be picked and placed on the first portion 116A of the conductive pattern 116, and attached (or adhered) to the conductive pattern 116 through the die attach film 200. The semiconductor die 110′ is for example surrounded by the through insulator vias 118. In addition, each of the fillers 220 in the die attach film 200 is in contact with the backside surface 110B of the semiconductor die 110′ and in contact with the conductive pattern 116 (first portion 116A of conductive pattern 116). Although only one semiconductor die 110′ is shown in FIG. 5, however, the number of semiconductor dies 110′ are not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, more than one of the semiconductor die 110′ may be picked and placed on the conductive pattern 116, wherein the semiconductor die 110′ placed on the conductive pattern 116 may be arranged in an array. When the semiconductor dies 110′ placed on the conductive pattern 116 are arranged in an array, the through insulator vias 118 may be classified into groups. The number of the semiconductor die 110′ may correspond to the number of the groups of the through insulator vias 118. In the illustrated embodiment, one or more of the semiconductor die 110′ is picked and placed on the conductive pattern 116 after the formation of the through insulator vias 118 and antennas 120. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, one or more of the semiconductor die 110′ may be picked and placed on the conductive pattern 116 before the formation of the through insulator vias 118 and antennas 120.

Furthermore, referring to FIG. 5, an insulating material 130 is formed on the buffer layer 114, the conductive pattern 116 and over the semiconductor die 110′. In some embodiments, the insulating material 106 is formed through, for example, a compression molding process, filling up the gaps between the semiconductor die 110′, the die attach film 200, the through insulator vias 118 and the antennas 120. In certain embodiments, the insulating material 130 for example encapsulates the semiconductor die 110′, the die attach film 200, the plurality of fillers 220, the conductive pattern 116, the through insulator vias 118 and the antennas 120. At this stage, the conductive pillars 110-4 and the protection layer 110-5 of the semiconductor die 110′ are encapsulated and well protected by the insulating material 130. In other words, the conductive pillars 110-4 and the protection layer 110-5 of the semiconductor die 110′ are not revealed and are well protected by the insulating material 130. In some embodiments, the insulating material 130 includes epoxy resins or other suitable resins. In some embodiments, the insulating material 130 has low permittivity (Dk) and low loss tangent (Df) properties. Depending on the frequency range of the high-speed applications, suitable materials of the insulating material 130 may be selected based on the required electrical properties of the package structure.

Referring to FIG. 6, in some embodiments, the insulating material 130 is partially removed to expose the conductive pillars 110-4 and the through insulator vias 118. In some embodiments, the insulating material 130 and the protection layer 110-5 are ground or polished by a mechanical grinding process, fly cutting process, and/or a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process to reveal the top surfaces 110-4 a of the conductive pillars 110-4. In some embodiments, the through insulator vias 118 may be partially polished so that the top surfaces 118 a of the through insulator vias 118 are levelled with the top surfaces 110-4 a of the conductive pillars 110-4. The insulating material 130 is polished to form an insulating encapsulant 130′. In some embodiments, the top surface 130 a of the insulating encapsulant 130′, the top surfaces 118 a of the through insulator vias 118, the top surfaces 120 a of the antennas 120, and the active surface 110A of the semiconductor die 110′ are substantially coplanar and levelled with one another. After the grinding or polishing steps, a cleaning step may be optionally performed, for example to clean and remove the residue generated from the grinding or polishing step.

Referring to FIG. 7, in some embodiments, a redistribution layer 140 is formed on the semiconductor die 110′, the through insulator vias 118, the antennas 120 and on the insulating encapsulant 130′. As shown in FIG. 7, the redistribution layer 140 is formed on the top surface 130 a of the insulating encapsulant 130′. In some embodiments, the redistribution layer 150 is electrically connected to the second portion 116B of the conductive pattern 116 through the through insulator vias 118, and is electrically connected to the semiconductor die 110′ through the conductive pillars 110-4. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 7, the semiconductor die 110′ is located between the redistribution layer 140 and the die attach film 200. In certain embodiments, the insulating encapsulant 130 is located between the redistribution layer 140 and the buffer layer 114, and located between the redistribution layer 140 and the conductive pattern 116.

In some embodiments, the formation of the redistribution layer 140 includes sequentially forming one or more polymer dielectric layers 140A and one or more metallization layers 140B in alternation. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 7, the metallization layers 140B are sandwiched between the polymer dielectric layers 140A. In certain embodiments, the top surface of the topmost layer of the metallization layers 140B is exposed by the topmost layer of the polymer dielectric layers 140A and the lowest layer of the metallization layers 140B is exposed by the lowest layer of the polymer dielectric layers 152 to connect the through insulator vias 118 and the conductive pillars 110-4 of the semiconductor die 110′. In some embodiments, the material of the metallization layers 140B includes aluminum, titanium, copper, nickel, tungsten, and/or alloys thereof, and the metallization layers 140B may be formed by electroplating or deposition. In some embodiments, the material of the polymer dielectric layers 140A includes polyimide, epoxy resin, acrylic resin, phenol resin, benzocyclobutene (BCB), polybenzooxazole (PBO), or any other suitable polymer-based dielectric material. Although only two layers of the metallization layers 140B and three layers of polymer dielectric layers 140A are illustrated herein, however, the scope of the disclose is not limited by the embodiments of the disclosure.

After forming the polymer dielectric layers 140A and the metallization layers 140B, a plurality of under-ball metallurgy (UBM) patterns 140C is formed on the exposed top surface of the topmost layer of the metallization layers 140B for electrically connecting with conductive elements (e.g. conductive balls) and/or semiconductor elements (e.g., passive components or active components). In some embodiments, the material of the under-ball metallurgy patterns 140C, for example, may include copper, nickel, titanium, tungsten, or alloys thereof or the like, and may be formed by an electroplating process. Subsequently, in some embodiments, conductive elements 145 are formed on the redistribution layer 140. In one embodiment, the conductive elements 145 are formed on the redistribution layer 140 through the under-ball metallurgy patterns 140C. In some embodiments, some of the conductive elements 145 are electrically connected to the semiconductor die 110′ through the under-ball metallurgy patterns 140C and the redistribution layer 140, and some of the conductive elements 145 are electrically connected to the conductive pattern 116 through the under-ball metallurgy patterns 140C, the redistribution layer 140, and the through insulator vias 118. In some embodiments, the conductive elements 145 are, for example, solder balls or ball grid array (BGA) balls. In some embodiments, the conductive elements 145 may be disposed on the under-ball metallurgy patterns 140C by a ball placement process or a reflow process.

Referring to FIG. 8, after forming the redistribution layer 140 and the conductive elements 145, the structure shown in FIG. 7 is turned upside down and attached to a tape 310 (e.g., a dicing tape 310) supported by a frame 320. As illustrated in FIG. 8, the carrier CR is debonded and is separated from the semiconductor die 110′ and the buffer layer 114. In accordance with some embodiments, the debonding process includes projecting a light such as a laser light or an UV light on the debond layer 112 so that the carrier CR can be easily removed along with the debond layer 112. In some embodiments, the buffer layer 114 may be peeled from the carrier CR by irradiating laser onto the debond layer 112 (e.g., the LTHC release layer). In alternative embodiments, the buffer layer 114 may be removed along with the debond layer 112 and the carrier CR, so that surfaces of the insulating encapsulant 130 and the conductive patterns 106 are exposed.

Referring to FIG. 9A, in some embodiments, after debonding the carrier CR, a molding compound 150 is formed on the buffer layer 114 and over the semiconductor die 110′ and the conductive pattern 116. In some embodiments, the buffer layer 114 is sandwiched between the molding compound 150 and the insulating encapsulant 130′. In an alternative embodiment, prior to forming the molding compound 150, the buffer layer 114 may be optionally removed. In some embodiments, the molding compound 150 includes, for example, epoxy resins or any other suitable type of molding materials. In some embodiments, the material of the molding compound 150 has low permittivity (Dk) and low loss tangent (Df) properties. Depending on the frequency range of the high-speed applications, suitable materials of the encapsulant may be selected based on the required electrical properties of the package. In some embodiments, the material of the molding compound 150 can be the same as the material of the insulating encapsulant 130′. In an alternative embodiment, the material of the molding compound 150 can be different from the material of the insulating encapsulant 130′, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

Referring still to FIG. 9A, in some embodiments, a plurality of antenna patterns 160 are formed on the molding compound 150, and over the buffer layer 114. The molding compound 150 is for example located between the antenna patterns 160 and the buffer layer 114. As shown in FIG. 9A, the antenna patterns 160 are formed on a surface of the molding compound 150 opposite to a side where the buffer layer 114 is located. In some embodiments, the antenna patterns 160 are electrically coupled with the conductive patterns (first portion 116A), wherein the conductive patterns (first portion 116A) may serve as ground plates. In some embodiments, the antenna patterns 160 are formed by forming a metallization layer (not shown) by electroplating or deposition over the molding compound 150 and then patterning the metallization layer by photolithographic and etching processes. In an alternative embodiment, the antenna patterns 160 are formed by forming a metallization layer (not shown) by a plating process. In some embodiments, the antenna patterns 160 may include patch antennas, which are arranged in form of a matrix to surround the semiconductor die 110′. As more clearly shown from a top view of the structure presented in FIG. 9B, in some embodiments, the antenna patterns 160, for example, are arrange around the semiconductor die 110′ and at locations near four corners of the semiconductor die 110′ and partially overlapped with the corners of the semiconductor die 110′ from the top view. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In some other embodiments, the antenna patterns 160 may be fully overlapped with the semiconductor die 110′ from the top view. In certain embodiments, the semiconductor die 110′ are surrounded by the through insulator vias 118, while locations of the antenna patterns 160 partially overlap with the locations of the through insulator vias. However, the disclosure is not limited by the embodiments of the disclosure, and in alternative embodiments, the arrangement of the antenna patterns 160 may be adjusted based on product requirement.

Referring to FIG. 10, after forming the antenna patterns 160, a dicing process is performed along the dicing lines DL (shown in FIG. 9A) to cut the whole wafer structure (cutting through the molding compound 150, the insulating encapsulant 130′ and the redistribution layer 140) into a plurality of packages 10. In the exemplary embodiment, the dicing process is a wafer dicing process including mechanical blade sawing or laser cutting. In a subsequent process, the separated packages 10 may for example, be disposed onto a circuit substrate or onto other components based on requirements.

According to the above embodiments, the plurality of fillers is uniformly arranged as a monolayer in the die attach film, and the diameter of the plurality of fillers is substantially equal to the height of the die attach film. As such, a height variation between each portion of the die attach film may be reduced to a minimum, and the height of the semiconductor die formed thereon may be appropriately controlled. By having such configuration, the thick die attach film having aligned fillers may be used to increase a distance between the semiconductor die and the antenna patterns formed on the molding compound. As such, an interference to the performance of the antenna patterns can be reduced, and the process yield of the package may be improved.

In accordance with some embodiments of the disclosure, a package structure including a semiconductor die, a redistribution layer, a plurality of antenna patterns, a die attach film and an insulating encapsulant is provided.
